  • I find it unsettling that airbnb should be profiting from the displacement of people; it can’t be a good idea to make money from the misery of the Palestinian’s plight.
    I suggest that Airbnb take more responsibility for their actions, people before profit.

  • It is wrong for promote an airbnb that is located in an area illegally occupied by Israel. I definitely I won’t be renting there. It gives your company a bad name….please remove them from your list asap

  • Airbnb – if only to keep their good name – should avoid such provocation!

  • I’m not a fan of displacing people from their homes, period.

  • If the money went to the Palestinians whose land this really belongs to, then it might be better than the crime that it is.

  • I feel deeply the lack of empathy we humans have for one another and this is one of those examples of how a very compassionate company, Airbnb, has overlooked the cruelty of a situation. It is a goal of Airbnb to bring people together globally by living in a home that can enlighten all of us by sharing a point of view and the similarity of the goals of all peoples. It seems to me this is a very poor way to share these views. By allowing a conquering group of people to make money off of stolen property, one participates in the cruelty of profiting on the sorrow and pain of others. This is a painful and continuing grief in the hearts of all of us who wish the success of all living creatures on this earth.

  • To consider this is deplorable and I will share this with all my colleagues and friends. Actually thought Air BNB had some ethics.

  • this listing is in violation of international law located in an illegal settlement. I will cease to use Air BnB as long as they list illegal occupied homes. and I will everything within my power to ask others to do the same.

  • Such behaviour airbnb should be liable for a class action malpractice suit. As a user of airbnb I am thoroughly disgusted and will shift short term rental providers if this facilitation of renting homes by illegal settlers continues.

  • About the host, Airbnb

    Last year alone Airbnb made almost $1 billion in revenue, and Airbnb is worth a whopping $24 billion. Yet, Airbnb continues to make a profit from homes located in illegal housing settlements in occupied territory.
